Hello,
Thanks for your response. I was waiting for this kind of help. I will
customize the traps from the enterprise trap group defined by Bridge group
and series2000 group (trapd.conf definitions), instead creating a new group
which contain the traps supported by the switch.
Thanks again,

Adriana,
James is right. You can not define a new enterprise ID for Cisco traps
and expect your Netview to understand and receive this group
of traps from the Cisco device. Cisco and only Cisco can define a new
Enterprise ID for its products. When Cisco releases a
new module or functionality (for example environmental monitors or isdn
functionality) , it usually adds a new enterprise ID in its private MIB
tree and writes an MIB file in order to make the new functionality
accesible from SNMP managers (like Netview). You take the MIB
file then and run mib2trap script with it, in order to produce addtrap
commands and include the new trap definitions into your trapd.conf file.
This is the case, unless you are the vendor of a new device which has
its own enteprise ID (and private MIB tree).
Hope this helps,
